The human delta-globin chain, unique to the hemoglobin A2 (HbA2) heterotetramer, is important for the evaluation of hemoglobinopathy. However, there are no well-defined antibodies specific for the delta-globin chain, a fact that is attributed a striking similarity (93%) in amino acid sequence between delta-globin and beta-globin of the hemoglobin A (HbA). In this study, two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the delta-globin chain were generated and designated as 2H4 and 1H11. These antibodies were specific to HbA2 and do not cross-react with HbA and HbF (fetal hemoglobin). Moreover, the expression of HbA2 in fetal liver and mature erythrocytes was determined using these two mAbs. In addition to being useful tools for research or diagnosis, these antibodies could be valuable for development of rapid and effective antibody-based immunoassays of HbA2 expression in erythroid cells and non-erythroid tissue.

D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D006443 Hemoglobin A2 An adult hemoglobin component normally present in hemolysates from human erythrocytes in concentrations of about 3%. The hemoglobin is composed of two alpha chains and two delta chains. The percentage of HbA2 varies in some hematologic disorders, but is about double in beta-thalassemia. A2, Hemoglobin
